Mission Springs, Scotts Valley, California It was a really good foray! Some of us arrived early to attend the all day Trustees’ Meeting on Wednesday: David Rust was elected to be the new president and Martin Osis the new first vice president. The dues were somewhat lowered, to reflect savings from electronic mail. And the club representatives shared interesting tips about activities their clubs found helpful for attracting and keeping members. On Thursday morning, a few friends and I went out to visit the sea lions. But it seems that once a year they get a two-week vacation from tourists, Just while we were there, so the two state parks we tried were closed. The first one had a ranger who showed us poison oak, a big luxuriant hedge of bare bushes—no leaves in winter. The second one, Butano, had no ranger, so we went in “owning” the park. At one point, a ranger found us. I explained that we were taking pictures and neglected to say that we were also picking mushrooms. And there were loads of them…. It was the beginning of the west coast rainy season—the mushrooms had been eagerly awaiting the rain and by now had appeared all over. So the collectors returned from their walks smiling, with baskets full of fresh specimens, and the display tables got loaded (“Please, no more Suillus!”). The checklist included about 350 taxa, excellent for two and a half days of collecting…. Especially as there was such a frustratingly rich offering of incentives--lectures and workshops-- to stay “home” for: Steve Trudell’s photography workshop, Fred Stevens’ montane puffballs, Debbie Viess’ western Amanitas, Daniel Winkler’s Tibet’s mushroom paradise, Rick Kerrigan’s California Agaricus, Shannon Nix’s microscopy workshop, Tom Volk’s hidden gems of mycology (where I learned that my favorite edible, Cantharellus cibarius, no longer exists in the US), David Rust on sudden oak death (but slow to move to the east coast), Roy Halling’s Australian boletes, John Plischke III’s fungi on fungi, Julie Schreiber’s cooking demonstration. Then there were Tom Bruns & Karen Nakasone’s crust fungus workshop, Robert Rogers’ medicinal mushrooms, Susan Hopkins’ tooth fungi, Kyle Garrone’s mushroom cultivation workshop, Michael Beug’s interesting mushroom poisonings, Nathan Wilson & Barbara Thiers’ NA Mycoflora vouchering workshop, Noah Siegel’s California boletes, Genevieve Gates’ Tasmanian fungi, Jim Trappe’s trees, truffles and beasts, Darvin DeShazer’ California polypores. Evening presentations included a remembrance of Larry Stickney, a naturalist’s introduction to Santa Cruz County, and an overview of the mushrooms of the redwood coast by Noah Siegel and Christian Schwartz, Dennis DesJardin’s illuminating fungi, Else Vellinga’s description of North American Mycoflora, and David Arora’s fungi game, as well as the awards: the NAMA awards to Cathy Cripps and Dianna Smith, and the President’s award also to Dianna Smith, as well as Adele Mehta and Linnea Gillman. Congratulations to all for these well-deserved honors. The place was beautiful: we were in a “rain forest”, surrounded by redwoods bathed in mist every morning and evening. The accommodations were great, the food was good and plentiful…. But the best culinary event was, of course, Ursula Pohl’s mushroom tasting. Once again, she wrought a miracle. Working in a small apartment-sized kitchen, she and her team prepped and cooked enough delicacies for 250 people; the food and utensils needed to be transported down two flights of stairs, then driven, then carried and set up: chicken liver paté with mushrooms, marinated mushrooms, sautéed boletes, sautéed matsutake, etc. etc., all served on divided plates. That’s genius! Thanks and congratulations to them and, of course, to the energetic foray organizers: Noah Siegel, Christian Schwarz, Alissa Allen, as well as the registrar: Ann Bornstein. Any nitpicking would be a bit of a stretch but here goes: The Mission is dry, so there was water, soda, wine, coffee and tea at the socials but—shsh—wine at our parties in our rooms. The weather was unseasonably cold but that was good for the mushrooms in the display area. It rained a bit but no one complained: mushroomers are hardy after all. And repeat: NOBODY COMPLAINED ABOUT ANYTHING! 3 Speaking for myself, I was really excited, and I believe there were many others who shared my reactions. This was my first West Coast foray and the first foray ever for many others I talked with. I did not know the trees or the names of most mushrooms. What a challenge! And what a pleasure to meet so many interesting new people!

Me, Just l’il ole me and who do I encounter? Well, there was Gary Lincoff, writer of the mushroom bible, The Audubon Field Guide to North American Mushrooms, giving a beginner foray. I’m no beginner, but I’ll go on a foray with Gary anytime. Then there was the outstanding talk, given by rock star Tom Volk, on Cryptic Species. Actually, the discussion was on the ever-changing names some of our most loved mushrooms— Morchella, Cantharellus, Armillaria, Laetiporus. What’s a person to do? The Friday night talk by Dennis DesJardin (researcher and writer of how many books???) was truly illuminating—yes, it was on fungal bioluminescence! And The Wheel of Fungi talk and show given Saturday night by David Arora, writer of the other bible, Mushrooms Demystified, was incredibly clever and loads of fun.

    1170 Molecular phylogenetic studies in the genus Amanita I5ichael Weiß, Zhu-Liang Yang, and Franz Oberwinkler Abstracl A group of 49 Amanita species that had been thoroughly examined morphologically and amtomically was analyzed by DNA sequence compadson to estimate natural groups and phylogenetic rclationships within the genus. Nuclear DNA sequences coding for a part of the ribosomal large subunit were determined and evaluated using neighbor-joining with bootstrap analysis, parsimony analysis, conditional clustering, and maximum likelihood methods, Sections Amanita, Caesarea, Vaginatae, Validae, Phalloideae, and Amidella were substantially confirmed as monophyletic groups, while the monophyly of section Lepidell.t remained unclear. Branching topologies between and within sections could also pafiially be derived. Stbgenera Amanita an'd Lepidella were not supported. The Mappae group was included in section Validae. Grouping hypotheses obtained by DNA analyses are discussed in relation to the distribution of morphological and anatomical chamcters in the studied species.

  • AMATOXIN MUSHROOM POISONING in NORTH AMERICA 2015-2016 by Michael W
    VOLUME 57: 4 JULY-AUGUST 2017 www.namyco.org AMATOXIN MUSHROOM POISONING IN NORTH AMERICA 2015-2016 By Michael W. Beug: Chair, NAMA Toxicology Committee Assessing the degree of amatoxin mushroom poisoning in North America is very challenging. Understanding the potential for various treatment practices is even more daunting. Although I have been studying mushroom poisoning for 45 years now, my own views on potential best treatment practices are still evolving. While my training in enzyme kinetics helps me understand the literature about amatoxin poisoning treatments, my lack of medical training limits me. Fortunately, critical comments from six different medical doctors have been incorporated in this article. All six, each concerned about different aspects in early drafts, returned me to the peer reviewed scientific literature for additional reading. There remains no known specific antidote for amatoxin poisoning. There have not been any gold standard double-blind placebo controlled studies. There never can be. When dealing with a potentially deadly poisoning (where in many non-western countries the amatoxin fatality rate exceeds 50%) treating of half of all poisoning patients with a placebo would be unethical. Using amatoxins on large animals to test new treatments (theoretically a great alternative) has ethical constraints on the experimental design that would most likely obscure the answers researchers sought. We must thus make our best judgement based on analysis of past cases. Although that number is now large enough that we can make some good assumptions, differences of interpretation will continue. Nonetheless, we may be on the cusp of reaching some agreement. Towards that end, I have contacted several Poison Centers and NAMA will be working with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

    Mushroom Toxins & Poisonings in New Jersey & Nearby Eastern North America What this document doesn’t do: (1) This document is not intended to be used as a guide for treatment and should not be so used. (2) Mushrooms should not be selected for eating based on the content of this document. [In identifying mushrooms in poisoning cases, this document does not replace expertise that should be obtained by calling NJPIES and obtaining contact with an experienced mycologist.] (3) This document is not a replacement for a detailed toxicological review of the subject of mushroom poisoning. (4) This document is intended for use with a broad set of audiences; for this reasons, it should not be used uncritically in setting protocols [for example, carrying out a Meixner test would be inappropriate for a first responder who would appropriately focus on collecting a poi- soning victim, the relevant objects from the scene of the poisoning, and the critical timing characteristics of the event such as the delay between ingestion and onset of symptoms.] POISON CONTROL: New Jersey “Poison Control” is called NJPIES (New Jersey Poison Information & Education System).

Assoc. workshop, 25 March 2006. Version 2.0 was compiled by Tulloss. When viewed with Acrobat Reader, underlined red or gray words and phrases are “hot linked cross-references.” We have included a few notes on fungal poisons that are not from “mushrooms.” The notes were prepared by mycologists with experience in diagnosis of fungi involved in cases in which ingestion of toxic fungi was suspected.

  • Poisonous Mushrooms
    POISONOUS MUSHROOMS DR. SURANJANA SARKAR ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN BOTANY, SURENDRANATH COLLEGE, KOLKATA Dr. Suranjana Sarkar, SNC INTRODUCTION It was difficult not to since eating wild mushrooms and mushroom poisoning seem to be closely related subjects. This is a rather important topic since mushrooms have apparently been gathered for eating throughout the world, for thousands of years, and it is also likely that during that time many people became ill or died when they inadvertently consumed poisonous mushrooms. Because some mushrooms were known to cause death when consumed, they were also known to be used by assassins.
